Our Sentra that was purchased used 3 years ago has been somewhat of a disappoint. Over the last couple of years we have dealt with transmission and clutch problems that have previously been worked on and keep recurring. We keep trying to pinpoint a specific issue, which may or may not have to do with a bad spark plug, and can't find the solution. We've gotten different responses from different mechanics. At this point, it might be cheaper to get another used (reliable) car instead of fixing up the Sentra. Not recommended.

The Nissan Sentra is a well-equipped vehicle with all the bells and whistles necessary to satisfy those with a lower income. It is smaller than a mid-sized car, but it has Bluetooth for connection to smart phones, air, power everything, except seats, and a back-up camera. This car has seats that stain easily and are difficult to clean, so be sure to be careful with food or utility products. The seals on the front windows squeal if the car is at high speeds, and the weather stripping gives out easier than other vehicles. I previously owned the Nissan Altima S, and it was a much more luxurious vehicle, with lumbar cushioned seats and room for a king.
